Plot Summary
An experience that’s as wild as its subject, Lemmy takes us on a surreal ride through the life of a rock icon. Over four decades, Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister has emerged as the undisputed godfather of heavy metal. Now in his mid-sixties, he remains the living embodiment of the rock n’ roll lifestyle—a Jack & Coke-drinking, Marlboro-smoking badass who rocks harder than men half his age. This is his incredible story, shot through with equal parts grit and intelligence, and featuring explosive Motörhead performances and an all-star slew of guests.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: A diverting if hagiographic documentary with an unprintable subtitle.
Fresh: Fun for fans and a healthy primer for those previously unaware, the film's overall air of fawning worship makes it feel softer than befits such a gruff, roguish figure.
Fresh: Lemmy gives the filmmakers enough time and candid access to create a profile of the man that goes deeper than just the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll - even though in Lemmy's case, there's enough of a surplus of all three to power multiple documentaries.
Fresh: This parade of admiration is almost as exhausting as the experience of a Motorhead concert
Customer Reviews
Excellent!
Awesome movie! A definite must see for any Motorhead fan, but would also be entertaining for soon to be fans
Lemmy
One of the most candid and honest docs on music I have ever seem
Lemmy
It's your regular cast of rock stars who always show up in docs and proclaim "such and such" is their true inspiration. Despite the fact they said the same thing about other artists in many other docs.
It has its interesting moments but doesn't really dig that deep into anything in particular. It could have been a half hour shorter as well.
Lemmy is a lovable rebel though - so it's fun to see him ambling about his blurry life.
